I am going in to have TMJ surgery on Monday. I'm scared to death of what the outcome will be but then again it cant be much worse than the pain and problems I live with due to the TMJ. I will let you know next week if the surgery is a success or not. I don;t know anything about what will happen during the surgery as I've been told nothing, nor have I been told anything in regards to complications hence why I'm so scared.

Yes we are out here! I have had 17 TMJ surgeries and currently on my third set of TMJ Concepts implants. For the first time in 18 years I am pain free, my opening is 41 mm and I do not have to take pain medication everyday. I know there is no cure and this set of implants could break right now, but I will take what I got! So do not give up HOPE! I hope all goes well for you!
Take Care!
